That was a standard circulation issue that's readily available even though France adopted the euro in 2002. The gold color is simply a bronze-like metal. There's no real gold in that coin (or in any other modern circulating coin today; e.g. the Sac dollar which is really copper, nickel, and manganese) There were 100 centimes to the franc and the franc was worth 12 to 14 U.S. cents. Your coin has a face value of 1.2 to 1.4 U.S. cents.

To clear things up:

> the coin is 20 centimes, not 20 cents.

> it's made of brass, not gold.

> "French Republic" (i.e. République Française) is the official name of France so they're not different countries.

In any case it was a common circulation coin until France adopted the euro in 2002. At that time it was worth less than a US nickel.

It's brass-plated, not gold. It was a common circulation coin until 2002 when France adopted the euro as its currency. At the exchange rate in effect at that time it would be worth about 4 US cents.
